Yes THIS! I recently watched a clip of him during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearing. I mean, he made no sense and I won't argue that he's always been an idiot, but clearly in 1991 or whenever he spoke clearly and attempted to string together word salad to seem smart. I read something awhile back that he had a stroke in the late 1990s or something, I bet the degradation of his brain started way back then. And as someone who has an extended family member who had a stroke and then later has dementia, I can assure you that it's a big difference in brain functionality pre-stroke vs post-stroke and the dementia makes it way way worse. It's undeniable and you really have to be the type of person who would vote for a coma vegetable to not acknowledge it is real.
